I am fully aware of who he is and what he said. But that doesn't make a person celebrating the death of someone else suddenly a hero or something. That behaviour is still shitty, even if the person it is targeted at is a bad person. So be relieved or damn his deeds (as I did), but celebrating it is another thing.

It's hard not to celebrate the death of someone who denied war crimes though. I suppose now you'd want us to mourn Bill Cosby when he finally dies.

Feel free not to mourn. Feel free to point out the bad of the person. I certainly know about his war crime denial and think that was bad. Doesn't mean we need to turn to hate ourself. It would have been better, if he had faced punishment in life for his doing.
